I've already opt-in to the new app and it's already showing the ads.
It's one small text ad, formatted to look like an email message card. I quickly learned to ignore it.
And no one is forcing anyone to use this app. You can use webmail, Thunderbird, etc...
I still prefer this app with the ad to opening gmail in the browser.
- hobs 3y agoIt's funny because you are saying they are STARTING with an insanely bad dark pattern and you're ok with it - where to next?
- dist-epoch 3y agoI'm not sure whats the dark pattern - that the ad looks like an email? I consider that a good thing since it makes it unobtrusive and invisible. Just like google text ads. I consider it a small price to pay for a nice app.
- Farbklex 3y agoIt would be better without an add. Free Outlook will become the default mail app pre installed with Windows, a commercial product that costs actual money. It is just shouldn't have ads. Just like Apple's Mail app doesn't have ads. Having ad free software should be the norm.
